Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2025 Stage 15: Fiume Veneto – Asiago

[benzwire]

Whaaat? I was told in the Roglstomp thread that its quite likely he will beat Pogacar and Vingegaard at the Tour this year.

He does tend to win the next Grand Tour after being crap/crashing in the previous one. Just saying...

Roglic just announced that he is going back to ski jumping

Egan Bernal...is guzzling chocolate milk!!

Impressive win by Verona. So far Del Toro looks comfortable while questions were answered about Roglic. Carapaz also looking good.

Wily old Giorgio Chiellini slips his way into 6th unnoticed, only 5 more.

Maybe Del Toro learned a lesson about not wearing the pink shorts.. Black shorts are just no good at Giro!!! Del Toro in his comfort zone congratulated Verona in Spanish, can't be easy trying to say something nice to Wout in Faaaaamz!

 

[Potomac]

Congratulations to Carlos Verona Quintanilla for winning the stage. The stars finally aligned for him. Lovely stuff.

Stork flies to second.

Stork delivers!

Well, that was more entertaining than I expected!

Couple of thoughts:

1. Carapaz looks really, really good. I think he could potentially win this but it depends on...
2. ...how good will del Toro be when they hit the serious mountains? I'm really excited for Tuesday!
3. It's a real shame that Bernal had such a bad second TT, because he is climbing really well and looks in great form.

Mythical Mortirolo descent duo attack with Bilbao will seal the deal.

I’m the biggest Verona fanboy, but Trek has won 5 stages. It sucks that Ciccone crashed out, but I’d say their Giro has been successful already.

Bernal crashed hard on his 2nd TT ..otherwise he would be up there

Free Pellizzari!

It's over for Roglic.
I don't think this was just a off day. It's either due to injuries or he's just in bad shape. Judging by the form of the entire Bora's team, the latter is quite likely.

I cant recall how many breakaways I have seen Verona in and he was always so close but no cigar
So happy for him....This makes his career and makes all the work worth it

Plus a great win...from so far out

I dont classify this a break away victory. Verona was in the peleton that caught the original break and then made it into a secondary break.

Sorry Wout..Flemish!! !! Can't wait to see Del Toro and Wout at Rigo Uran's grand fondo!!!

I knew it was in jest, just figured best place to mention Trek tickling the sponsors at every chance!!
Double face palm!!! I deserve one!!

Roglic is the king of the one week race. He hasn't even started yet. He set this all up so that the 3rd week is simply a one week stage race. Get ready for it! He even gave the others a bit of a head start!

 

[noob]

Bummer, your TV gave up on you? Sounded like it was running on hamster power (or Roglic power)...

I dozed off for a few hours and once I woke up I saw Rogla doing very poorly... must be age and he's probably sore from his crashes.

I was on family visit from Grappa and onwards. I'm sad for Rogla

I am looking forward to your positive "rants" in favor of del Toro later today.

There's very little to suggest from the likes of Yates, Carapaz and Gee that they'll put up a big fight to UAE at this point.

Del Toro on shower alcohol duty again

Unless they stick with the "Nurse Ayuso" strategy. Disagree on Carapaz.

I think Carapaz and Bernal will be aggressive, but it will be very hard to beat del Toro, he looks amazing so far.

Ayuso doesn‘t look great. Carapaz will throw the kitchen sink at Del Toro and then Del Toro will probably take the Giro.
